Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Language Exercises, Vol. 2: For Primary Schools Instruction in language often deals too much with the forms of sentences and too little with thought. Grammatical drill has little effect upon the correctness of every-day expression. The child should be continually engaged in forming exact ideas about objects of study, and in expressing them clearly and accurately. Language is a medium, merely, for the expression of thought, and it is important that its nature and purpose be kept in mind. The value of the lessons in this book is to be sought in the habits of observation and reflection they teach, and in the practice they give in forming exact ideas, and in expressing them clearly. Things seen every day, pictures, choice stories, animals, letter-writing, etc., - subjects upon which the thoughts of children exercise themselves spontaneously, - furnish material for these lessons. The terms "noun," "verb," "adjective," etc., have been used for convenience, and not for the purpose of definition and minute grammatical classification. The children will soon become familiar with them and will use them properly, just as they use many other class words which they can not define formally. Most of the exercises in this book have been subjected to the test of class use. it is believed that they will commend themselves to teachers who are seeking rational methods of instruction in language.
